For Muscle Spasm "After breaking my back three times, I ended up with ankylosing spondylitis, scoliosis, and kyphosis. All major degenerative spinal diseases and cause for great endless pain. Coping is the hard part. I have been on Oxycontin, morphine, and several other neural analgesics. All these did was make me nauseous, constipated, and robbed me of at least 20 IQ points. Shear tenacity and methocarbamol has given me control over chronic pain with minimal ingestion 500 mg for three days. If I'm still good, carry on till required again maybe in a week or two. Best part I got most of my marbles back again. It has taken 10 years of medicines to finally find methocarbamol and thanks to it I can cope."

For Muscle Spasm "I have been in pain for years. Surgery 17 years ago. I'm only 39, and that has left my back a degenerating mess. I found the right doctor who explained my back scans, remarking that I should be in extreme pain ALWAYS. Yeah, it's gotten there. Robaxin to the rescue! So far, it's great. I think I need more frequent dosing. 1500mg per day prescribed. I'm taking 2250 (3 pills). It makes me feel nauseous, yet allows me to get to my new job and work without an embarrassing spasm. Mine are BAD, so this medicine is helping."

For Muscle Spasm "Felt like a fart, but it was a shart. Saw double, can't sleep, loss of appetite, dizzy, chest pains, my chest felt heavy. It did make my head forget about the pain, but it was still there. Bilateral spinal muscles were in spasm. T12, L1, and L2 problem. Never took this drug ever and won't ever again. Nauseated, diarrhea, bile colored. I took half the pill. It is nothing like Motrin. Flexeril is a safer medication, less likely to shart your pants. But took what was prescribed, never heard of this drug before."

For Muscle Spasm "Was prescribed Robaxin for muscle spasm after Vicodin failed to help. Although the Robaxin eliminated the muscle spasms, I had nausea, lack of appetite, and insomnia."

For Muscle Spasm "Worked at first, but side effects were too much: nausea, flushing in the face, and if you take a whole pill, it will knock you out for 12 hours. If you have to take it, then just take half a pill."
